Dell Fabric Design Center

  • Dell Fabric Design Center (FDC) is a cloud-based user interface that allows the user to design solution-specific data center fabrics and integrated turnkey solutions. It generates logical and physical network views, Bills of Materials, and Cabling diagrams from the details of clusters that are intended for the business. This can be used in conjunction with Live Optics and the Microsoft HCI Solutions from Dell Technologies sizer tool in the early design phases.

    Note: The Azure Stack HCI Sizer Tool can only be accessed by Dell Technologies direct sales and its partners. Customers can contact their Dell Technologies or preferred channel partner to step through sample configuration options.

    The Stretch Clustering with Azure Stack HCI chapter signifies how stretched clusters enable an organization to create an active workload balanced data center. Stretched clusters deliver workload mobility, reduce downtime, and provide disaster avoidance and load balancing capabilities.
